Time vs. Truth: Age-Distortion Tradeoffs and Strategies for Distributed Inference

Yunus Inan

In 1948, Claude Shannon laid the foundations of information theory, which grew out of a study to find the ultimate limits of source compression, and of reliable communication. Since then, information theory has proved itself not only as a quest to find the ...

Analysis of Dampers in Time-Sensitive Networks With Non-Ideal Clocks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ehsan Mohammadpour

Dampers are devices that reduce delay jitter in the context of time-sensitive networks, by delaying packets for the amount written in packet headers. Jitter reduction is required by some real-time applications; beyond this, dampers have the potential to so ...

Critical node selection method for efficient Max-Pressure traffic signal control in large-scale congested networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Anastasios Kouvelas, Dimitrios Tsitsokas

Decentralized signal control of congested traffic networks based on the Max-Pressure (MP) controller is theoretically proven to maximize throughput, stabilize the system and balance queues for single intersections under specific conditions. However, its pe ...

Interleaved Weighted Round-Robin: A Network Calculus Analysis

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Seyed Mohammadhossein Tabatabaee

Weighted Round-Robin (WRR) is often used, due to its simplicity, for scheduling packets or tasks. With WRR, a number of packets equal to the weight allocated to a flow can be served consecutively, which leads to a bursty service. Interleaved Weighted Round ...
